Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Balls

Chocolate and peanut butter – is there a better pair? We love this combination! This recipe uses ingredients such as honey, vanilla extract and peanut butter protein powder. #YUM. Next time you’re wondering what is a good high protein snack, then this might be the one for you!

What we love about this recipe is that it needs just six ingredients, some of which you may already have in your kitchen!

Here’s how to make it:

Gather your ingredients: two tablespoons of peanut butter, two tablespoons of honey, one teaspoon of vanilla extract, half a cup of peanut butter protein powder, two tablespoons of cacao or cocoa, and one pinch of salt.

Next, place the peanut butter, vanilla, honey, and salt into a bowl and mix to combine. Then, add the protein powder and cacao or cocoa to the bowl and mix. Use your hands to work the mixture until it resembles a cookie dough consistency. Next, shape 1 tablespoon of the mixture into a ball and continue to do this until the mixture is finished. Place it in the fridge to set for 30 minutes. All that’s left is to enjoy!

If peanut butter is one of your favourites, then you’re about to love it even more. Our Peanut Butter Vegan Protein Powder contains 21.0 of protein per 30-gram serving, plus we make it with ingredients such as pea protein isolate, peanuts, chia seeds, and coconut flour.

Cacao Mint Overnight Oats

Nothing beats a delicious serving of overnight oats. Malissa loves the cacao mint overnight oats; they are made with ingredients such as our cacao mint hemp protein powder, oats, and cacao.

Here’s the recipe for you; we hope you enjoy it! We love that you only need five ingredients!

Have prepared one scoop of our Cacao Mint Protein Powder, one cup of oats, one cup of milk of your choice, one tablespoon of cacao, and one teaspoon of pure maple syrup.

Now it’s time to make this delicious breakfast!
Firstly, in a large bowl or mason jar, add all of the ingredients. Then, mix or shake well and place it in the fridge to set overnight.
Top it with your choice of fruit, nuts and seeds! Enjoy!

Overnight oats are super easy to make and can give you something oh-so-delicious to look forward to in the morning! Do you think you’ll give these a go?
